-2 kegs for the price of one keg already discounted 25% so about $145

I like the cost of Gin and Scotch at Superstore... Half decent brands 5-8 dollars cheeper than the corner store.

The local Co-op liquor store has some signs throughout mentioning something like "Our prices include GST and Deposit - Don't be fooled"
A not-so-veiled shot at the Real Canadial Liquor Store that opened a year ago down the street.
(Note: have all the Superstores redone their colour schemes?)

But for liquor it's gold you can get Grey Goose Vodka for a little over $30. Not a bad deal at all.

You mean Costco up north up Sarcee trail? Not that I enjoy drinking much since alcohol makes my asian blood woozy due to lack of proper Alcohol digesting enzyme.
Heck I can get hammered off a can of 0.5% Superstore Non-Alcoholic Brew. $4 bucks for a 12-pack can't be beat.

I will normally just goto the closest one to me, but I'm thinking about going a getting a few bottles, so if I could save myself some money that would be great!

Stupid thread bumps. I was almost out the door to go get a case of Kokanee for $19 and Milwaukee for $10. Drinking in 2006 was much cheaper.

Between this necro thread, the relationship thread and others that are around hovering this subject, I only have one piece of advice :
You will be happier spending a little more for something better. You will drink less, enjoy it more, and getting drunk will become a sometimes byproduct instead of the goal.

Uh oh. Clearly, they're not familiar with the Wannamaker incident. I hope for their sake there isn't another, competing liquor store close by.

Well it looks like there is a Safeway Liquor, 2 BK liquors, wood park liquor and liquor zone all relatively close.

I didn’t even notice it was a bump, the “new Costco in the NW” post should have given it away to me

I second the guy that said Olympia Liquor 14 years ago. Still the cheapest over all IMO. Costco a close second.
